Emily's Purple Infinity Scarf

A friend of mine, Mike, asked if I could make a scarf for his wife, Emily, for Christmas.  I sent Mike a few patterns to choose from and he picked one.  Then he just told me to make it purple.  This was before anything happened with my bf going into the hospital.

This project actually ended up being the project that got me through all of the hospital time.

This is how it started:


It is a nice ripple infinity scarf pattern.  Here is how it turned out when it was all finished.  I had to take the pictures at night because I really cut it close.  I finished it on the 22nd and gave it to Mike fully wrapped on the 23rd.






I love it and I'm probably going to have to make it again for myself!

Details:
Pattern:  Infinity Scarf by Kim Miller, I bought the pattern on www.knitpicks.com
Yarn:  Knit Picks Gloss Fingering in the color Bordeaux, closest picture to true color is the first picture of the unfinished scarf.
Hook: 3.5mm E hook
Size:  58" x 8" (147cm x 20cm)

This pattern is amazing, it has a lot of texture because you work only in the back loops.

You might see another one of these sometime soon because I want one!
